Keells Land, where he managed the Realty Division which handled the renting of a portfolio of
apartments in the Monarch and Emperor developments.

His last endeavor was as General Manager of Colombo City Centre Partners (Private) Limited, a joint
venture between the Abans Group and SilverNeedle Hospitality from Singapore. Reporting Directly
to the Board, he was responsible for setting up of the operations of the Company and he played a
major role in the project achieving approximately 45% sales within a very short span of time using his
vast database of customers acquired over the past 13 years in the industry.

Mr Buultjens, with this experience behind him and his ability to empathize with customers, most of
whom are of his vintage has been involved in and been a part of teams which have been responsible
for the sale of nearly 1350 apartments totaling nearly US$ 500 million.

In a working career spanning 34 years, Mr Buultjens has worked both in Export Marketing as well as
Domestic Marketing and has also had the good fortune of receiving his formative experience in two
of the oldest English Companies in Sri Lanka, namely Mackwoods Limited and Delmege Forsyth &
Company Limited. He also has experience of working in an ISO 2000 Company, having been
instrumental in setting up the systems in a tea export company named Tea Tang Limited, which is a
subsidiary of the well- known B. P De Silva Group, based in Singapore.

A Member of the Chartered Institute of Marketing (UK), Mr Buultjens is also a Member of the Institute
